Collecting messages by business partner

You must specify the dummy message, defined in the EDI Parameters (ecedi0100s000), if you intend to collect all messages for a business partner. The New Batch Number field in the Business Partner EDI Data by Network (ecedi0128s000) session is By Recipient.

When you generate messages:

• Interchange Header Conversion Setup, described in the dummy message. This record is created once for each business partner.
• Message Overhead Conversion Setup, described in the dummy message. This record is created for each group of messages. The layout is retrieved from the dummy message to prevent the generation of message overhead records with different layouts.
• Conversion Setup Code, the layout as specified for the message.
